What is Permaculture Research PH?

Permaculture Research PH is an independent research initiative. Our goal is to document and study permaculture designs in the Philippines for ecosystem restoration. 

Current Projects (2021-2022): 
  • Mission Control to Automate Image Processing in Permaculture Sites (Jayson Osayan, CEAT-UPLB)
  • Computer Vision-Based Change Detection of Time-Series Orthomosaics from Non-GPS Drones (Julius Victor Abril, CEAT-UPLB)
  • Land Cover Change Detection of Permaculture Landscapes Post-Taal Volcano Eruption and Typhoon Odette 

Publications (2016-2021):
  • An Inventory of Commonly Cultivated Plant Species in Permaculture Farms in the Philippines (2022)
  • The Structure of Permaculture Landscapes in the Philippines (2021)
  • Permaculture in the Philippines: Landscape Structure, Practices, and Perspectives (2020)
  • Documenting Permaculture Farm Landscapes in the Philippines Using a Drone with a Smartphone (2020)
  • Creating Virtual Corridors: Social Network Discovery and Landscape Patch Connectivity of Permaculture Projects and Initiatives on Facebook (2016)

  1. I'm looking for an Drone Operator with equipment to create a topographic map for permaculture design purpose. Would this be something for Jim Leandro Cano? How can we get in contact?
